I have a sore that is currently flaring in my bikini line, I cannot inject it with the kenalog for another 2.5 weeks - this is what usually works best for me. I tried the Vicks idea, resorcinol cream, and heat pack. Nothing is working this time! Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I am starting simlandi today but I need some relief now

When I switched to boxer briefs (for women), it slowed the and reduced the number of that presented at the same time. Iโ€™ll have to look at the ones on Amazon, but I get mine from TomboyX. They have fun prints, different lengths, and are women owned & operated. When I can, I also use a small ice pack when itโ€™s hot out. Even if there is nothing active.

Changing your underwear is a great idea......I buy Womens Boy Shorts Underwear from Amazon......they are like snug fitting shorts. I have always bandaged as well. If you use gauze and a bandage it will cushion the area which will help with the pain! For long term, I am on the keto diet and in complete remission....let me know if you are interested!
